Worthy's 6.6 yards per target ranks 51st among 60 first-round WRs since 2011.

Through 33 career regular-season games, Worthy ranks 32nd in receptions, 38th in receiving yards, and 33rd in receiving touchdowns among 60 first-round wide receivers drafted between 2011–2025. His 6.6 yards per target ranks 51st among that cohort—a concerning efficiency metric that places him alongside a group of notable busts including Kevin White, Garrett Wilson, Josh Doctson, A.J. Jenkins, Nelson Agholor, John Ross, Kadarius Toney, Jalen Reagor, Xavier Leggette, Breshad Perriman, Cordarrelle Patterson, Tavon Austin, N'Keal Harry, Laquon Treadwell, Corey Coleman, and Jonathan Baldwin. The source notes this is especially worrisome given Worthy plays with a future Hall of Fame coach (Andy Reid) and quarterback (Patrick Mahomes), eliminating the typical excuses of poor scheme or below-average QB play that other underperforming receivers have cited.
